Succession Actors Star In 'Job'; Photographer Micaiah Carter; Manet/Degas at the Met; Contemporary Artist Henry Taylor
Just extended through October 29 at SoHo Playhouse, "Job" centers on the relationship between a crisis therapist, played by "Succession" actor Peter Friedman, and his client, a tech employee played by Sydney Lemmon whose recent workplace breakdown has become a viral video.

A new exhibit at the Metropolitan Museum of Art spotlights the fraught relationship between French artists Édouard Manet and Edgar Degas, who often went back and forth between being friends, and rivals. We discuss the exhibit with curators Stephan Wolohojian, who worked on the paintings, and Ashley Dunn, who worked with drawings and works on paper. Manet/Degas is on view at the Met through January 7th.
A new exhibition at the Whitney surveys the work of contemporary artist Henry Taylor (born 1958). Taylor grew up near and is based in Los Angeles, where he paints people of all kinds in a figurative style: celebrities, friends, strangers on the street, and people he imagines. Henry Taylor: B Side, displays over 150 Taylor pieces, making it the largest showing of his work to date. The exhibition is on view starting tomorrow through January 28. Whitney curator Barbara Haskell joins to preview the show and introduce us to the world of Henry Taylor.
